The role of the Public Relations Department is to promote awareness and understanding about MCJC throughout the Montgomery County middle schools and community media outlets, to prepare press releases with the Publications Director, to handle all MCJC correspondence with the MCJC secretary, to organize and maintain MCJC events, to organize events that promote MCJC, such as school visits, to plan and facilitate student advocacy training tips or workshops at MCJC General Assemblies, to promote and advertise MCJC by making digital visuals such as Public Service Announcements (PSA) and movies to help advocate for MCJC. We also plan bonding events and activities for the MCJC Executive Board!

Director Bios 

Hey everyone! My name is Maahira Chander, and I’m a 7th grader at North Bethesda Middle School. My passion for leadership began when I served as a Safety Patrol Captain at Wyngate Elementary School. I’m currently serving as your MCJC Public Relations Director and am also active in SEC (the Special Elections Committee) and MASC (the Maryland Association of Student Councils). I love music, art, skiing, and, of course, hanging out with my friends! I’m so excited for the year ahead and can’t wait to meet and work with all of you!!
